Hi,

I have a dropdown with 5 values.
But in the following panel query the table and index which i am using has no reference to that above dropdown values.
So i have used makeresults to populate the token and use it in the query

Now how can i say if from dropdown A is choosen then taken token1 and if from dropwn B is choosen then use token2

I tried with a if and eval but thats not working can you may be help with the if condition here so that i can use the same token but gets populated accordingly or use a case statement

<form>
  <label>abc</label>
  <search>
    <query>|makeresults |eval cfd_hosts=if($infraname$="FRA-CLOUD GTS","SC2CLK-CLOUD-CFD-VDC2 OR host=SC2BJV-CLOUD-CFD-VDC2 OR host=DC2A4-CLOUD-CFD-VDC2",1 )| fields cfd_hosts
     </query>
    <done>
      <set token="tokField1">$result.cfd_hosts$</set>
    </done>
  </search>
  <search>
    <query>|makeresults |eval fra_bip_hosts="TIGR7-BIP-CFD-A2 OR host=TIGR4-BIP-CFD-A1 OR host=SC2CLK-SVC-CFD-A OR host=SC2ASV-SVC-CFD-A1" | fields fra_bip_hosts
     </query>
    <done>
      <set token="tokField2">$result.fra_bip_hosts$</set>
    </done>
  </search>
  <fieldset submitButton="false">
    <input type="dropdown" token="infraname" searchWhenChanged="true">
      <label>field1</label>
      <fieldForLabel>Infrastructure Name</fieldForLabel>
      <fieldForValue>Infrastructure Name</fieldForValue>
      <search>
        <query>|inputlookup temp_infraname.csv | table "Infrastructure Name"</query>
        <earliest>-24h@h</earliest>
        <latest>now</latest>
      </search>
    </input>
  </fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <title>$infraname$ choosen</title>
        <search>
          <query>| mstats max(_value) as Bits_in_sec where index=ehealth (host=$tokField2$) AND metric_name="*in"   
    by host,metric_name, info span=1d </query>
          <earliest>-24h@h</earliest>
          <latest>now</latest>
        </search>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
</form>

Hi @surekhasplunk,

Seems like you're looking for conditional token behavior, have a look at the official documentation here there's a good example on how to use it :
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.6/Viz/ContextualDrilldown#Configure_conditional_beh...
And here :
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.6/Viz/tokens#Conditional_operations_with_form_input...

You can use on change for each of your inputs so whenever one changes your token is set, so for the first input you would have:

  <change>
      <set token="yourtoken">$token1$</set>
  </change>

And the second as well but with token2:

  <change>
      <set token="yourtoken">$token2$</set>
  </change>

Cheers,
David
